Trauma

What happened to you still shows up, in your body, your relationships, your sense of safety. Trauma therapy helps you process it instead of just managing around it.

Trauma Therapy

You don't have to relive it to heal from it. You just have to have the right support while you process it.

  • Understanding Your Trauma

You survived it. You haven’t fully moved through it.

Whatever happened, some part of it is still living in your body. Maybe it’s hypervigilance, maybe it’s the way certain things trigger a response that feels bigger than the moment. You’ve adapted, but adapting isn’t the same as healing.

Trauma and PTSD are two of our therapists’ strongest areas of focus. This is what they specialize in, not general talk therapy applied to a trauma history.

Who Benefits Most from Trauma Management

You will benefit if:
  • Something from your past keeps affecting how you function today
  • You have a hard time feeling safe, even when nothing is actually wrong
  • Certain triggers cause a reaction that feels bigger than the moment
  • You've tried general talk therapy and it hasn't gotten to the root of it
  • You're ready to process what happened, not just manage around it
You might not be ready yet if:
  • severe mental illness
  • active substance abuse

If you're in crisis, we recommend outpatient services at a local program first. For substance concerns, see our Addiction page.

— we'll make sure you get the right support.
